Worried about design costs for your Etsy shop? Learn how to leverage Midjourney AI to create free product images and save thousands on designer fees.
Design Your Own Etsy Product Images with Midjourney AI
Product design costs can range from $2 to $4 per image. For an Etsy shop with 100-500 products, this can add up to thousands of dollars. Midjourney AI eliminates this burden. This AI tool allows you to create high-quality product images, often surpassing hand-drawn designs, at virtually no cost.
Choosing a Product Niche on Etsy
Before starting with Midjourney, define the product niche you want to sell. For example, if you want to sell flower images, research best-selling flower images on Etsy for inspiration.
Using Midjourney to Generate Images
Use keywords related to your product theme to generate images on Midjourney. For example, for the flower theme, you can use keywords like “Boho Flower”, “Flower on white background”. The “on white background” prompt creates images on a white background, making it easier to remove the background in Photoshop.
Editing Images with Photoshop
After generating images with Midjourney, use Photoshop to edit and remove the background. There are two methods for background removal:
Method 1: Using the Magic Wand Tool
Select the Magic Wand tool, click on the white background, and press Delete. This method is simple but may require additional manual editing.
Method 2: Using Channels
Select the image layer, go to Channels, press Ctrl and click on the RGB layer. Then, right-click and choose “Select Inverse”, press Ctrl+C to copy the selection. Create a new layer, press Ctrl+V to paste. Repeat these steps for the remaining layers in Channels. Finally, turn off the old layers and keep the new layer with the removed background.
Applying Images to Etsy Products
After removing the background, you can easily apply the image to product mockups for your Etsy shop. Experiment with both background removal methods to choose the one that yields the best quality image.
